I think it is the same reason why the English drive on the  left, while 
everyone else drives on the right. But, I don't know what that  reason is.

Hi  Arachnids

I have been asked a question. ‘Which laces have the  footside on the 
left and
which on the right?’ As far as I know only the  English laces Bucks 
Point and
Bedfordshire have the footside on the left.  Even the English Downton has 
it on
the right. Does anyone know of any other  laces with it on the right?

As for why I have several ideas.  1)  Someone with little experience or who 
had
not made it for some time  introduces lacemaking in England. 2) The person
introducing the lace wanted  to put her ‘stamp’ on it. 3) The 
person 
who
introduced the lace worked  it out how it was made by examining the lace.

Any information, comments  and discussion is going to be very interesting.

Happy  lacemaking

Alex
